Areas for improvement

While Carrd is excellent for simple, one-page websites, its limitations in multi-page support, design flexibility, and advanced features may not meet the needs of more complex projects or growing businesses.

Limited to One-Page Sites: Carrd is designed for one-page websites, which can be restrictive if you need a multi-page site for more complex projects.

Basic Design Flexibility: While Carrd offers customization, its design options are less extensive compared to more advanced website builders, limiting creative freedom for some users.

Advanced Features Require Pro Plan: Many of the advanced features, such as custom domains and integrations, are only available with the Pro plans, requiring an upgrade from the free version.

Limited E-commerce Capabilities: Carrd is not built for full-fledged e-commerce sites, making it unsuitable for businesses looking to run extensive online stores.

Dependence on External Integrations: Some functionalities, like email marketing or advanced analytics, rely heavily on third-party integrations, which might not be seamless for all users.

Scalability Issues: As your needs grow, Carrd's one-page format and limited feature set might not scale well for larger or more complex websites.
